چکیده

Let G be a group. Representations of G can be defined on any vector space (possibly infinite dimensional) over any field, but we will only consider representations on finite dimensional complex vector spaces. Let V be a finite dimensional complex vector space. Let GL(V ) be the set of all invertible linear transformations of V . This is a group under composition. If V has dimension n and if we choose a basis e1, . . . , en of V then the map x = x1e1 + · · · + xnen 7→ (x1, . . . , xn) : V → Cn is an isomorphism of vector spaces. There is a corresponding group isomorphism GL(V ) → GL(Cn) which sends each invertible linear transformation of V to the corresponding invertible matrix with respect to this basis. We denote GL(Cn) by GL(n,C): the group of all invertible complex n×n matrices. Here the group multiplication is by multiplication of matrices.

The Generalized Segal-bargmann Transform and Special Functions

Analysis of function spaces and special functions are closely related to the representation theory of Lie groups. We explain here the connection between the Laguerre functions, the Laguerre polynomials, and the Meixner-Pollacyck polynomials on the one side, and highest weight representations of Hermitian Lie groups on the other side. The representation theory is used to derive differential equa...

Applications of subordination theory to starlike functions

Let $p$ be an analytic function defined on the open unit disc $mathbb{D}$ with $p(0)=1.$ The conditions on $alpha$ and $beta$ are derived for $p(z)$ to be subordinate to $1+4z/3+2z^{2}/3=:varphi_{C}(z)$ when $(1-alpha)p(z)+alpha p^{2}(z)+beta zp'(z)/p(z)$ is subordinate to $e^{z}$. Similar problems were investigated for $p(z)$ to lie in a region bounded by lemniscate of Bernoulli $|w^{2}-1|=1$ ...

Monomial Irreducible sln-Modules

In this article, we introduce monomial irreducible representations of the special linear Lie algebra $sln$. We will show that this kind of representations have bases for which the action of the Chevalley generators of the Lie algebra on the basis elements can be given by a simple formula.

Separation of Variables and Lie Algebra Contractions. Applications to Special Functions

A review is given of some recently obtained results on analytic contractions of Lie algebras and Lie groups and their application to special function theory. The contractions considered are from O(3) to E(2) and from O(2, 1) to E(2), or E(1, 1). The analytic contractions provide relations between separable coordinate systems on various homogeneous manifolds. They lead to asymptotic relations be...

Arithmetic Deformation Theory of Lie Algebras

This paper is devoted to deformation theory of graded Lie algebras over Z or Zl with finite dimensional graded pieces. Such deformation problems naturally appear in number theory. In the first part of the paper, we use Schlessinger criteria for functors on Artinian local rings in order to obtain universal deformation rings for deformations of graded Lie algebras and their graded representations...
